Well, if you look at the press meme this morning, it’s Trump is being mentally disturbed by the drugs he’s taking for COVID19. I hope it’s not a declaration that Trump is mentally unfit.

Maybe my tin foil hat has slipped and I’m received false signals??? =:-0

It wouldn’t be the FBI or DOJ making that announcement as the Cabinet has to take action to invoke the 25th Amendment.

Akhil Reed Amar, a leading constitutional scholar at Yale University, said in a podcast for the National Constitution Center on the topic that the president’s own running mate is the one who triggers a “palace coup,” in order to maintain political stability.

“Here’s the key point: The vice president is the pivot in the whole process,” Amar said. “Unless the vice president puts himself — maybe one day, herself — forward, no one else can really basically, at least within the 25th Amendment framework, proclaim an unwilling president ‘disabled.’”

The idea is that the Cabinet and VP are the president’s closest advisers, Feerick said, so they would be the ones with the best sense of his mental faculties. They, and Congress, could also consult doctors to evaluate the president’s physical and mental health in order to determine if he or she is fit for the job, though they don’t have to.
